After negative oil price, the international oil price continued to rise to a two-month high

The positive news of vaccine research and development directly led to the rise of European and American stock markets. In addition, OPEC + production reduction continued, European and American countries also relaxed epidemic control measures, and international oil prices rose sharply to a two-month high.

WTI crude oil futures for June delivery rose as of May 19, Beijing time 8.12% , report thirty-one point eight two USD / bbl; Brent crude oil futures for July delivery up 7.11% , report thirty-four point eight one USD / barrel.

A month ago, due to the continuous increase in crude oil supply, global oil demand declined significantly, including oil storage tanks and offshore oil tankers, which led to the negative contract price of WTI crude oil futures in May.

Since then, oil producing countries have substantially reduced production and global crude oil demand has gradually recovered, with international oil prices rising steadily.

Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy at Royal Bank of Canada, believes that the crude oil market is gradually recovering as energy demand in China and the United States picks up and OPEC + organizes coordinated production reduction.

According to the production reduction agreement reached by OPEC + in April, OPEC + cut production by 9.7 million barrels / day from May to June this year; the production reduction scale from the end of July to the end of the year is 7.7 million barrels / day.

On May 11, Saudi Arabia announced an additional 1 million barrels / day production reduction in addition to the OPEC + production reduction plan; Kuwait and the UAE followed up.

OPEC expects non OPEC countries to reduce crude oil supply by 3.5 million barrels per day in 2020 and 1.5 million barrels per day last month.
